Atlantic Climate in Mother’s Day

Weather forecasts predict the same storm that has soaked parts of the central Appalachians and the mid-Atlantic region for days might turn into the first named tropical depression or named system of the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season.

The system in concern is still days away from forming, but even if it does not form into a tropical or subtropical system, poor coastal conditions are expected from New York to Florida.

Winds will pick up over the mid-Atlantic and southern New England coasts this weekend, despite showers slowly moving from northwest to southeast throughout much of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic. Clouds may break from the central Appalachians to the inner mid-Atlantic and southern New England around lunchtime on Mother’s Day. For those going out for Mother’s Day dinners, cool conditions in the 50s to mid-60s may still need the use of a jacket or sweater.

Forecasters predict that the immediate mid-Atlantic coast will be terrible this weekend, including Mother’s Day.

“East to northeast winds will likely blow steadily between 15 and 30 mph from coastal New York to Virginia, with gusts of 35-50 mph,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Dave Dombek said.

Strong winds will continue to blow along the mid-Atlantic coastlines into the middle of next week, causing coastal flooding and beach erosion, according to Dombek.

The same severe weather will move hundreds of miles south along the Atlantic coast next week, affecting the Carolinas, Georgia, and even northeastern Florida. Wildwood, New Jersey, Norfolk, Virginia, Nags Head, North Carolina, and Charleston, South Carolina are all vulnerable to coastal flooding during lengthy periods of onshore winds and above-normal tides.

Meteorologist said , “Strong and frequent rip currents will reach southward as well.”Swimming will be difficult in the mid-Atlantic due to water temperatures in the 50s and lower 60s. Surf temperatures in the southern Atlantic coast, on the other hand, are generally in the 70s, attracting more visitors to the surf zone.

“Through the first half of next week, the offshore storm will create a zone of gloomy, chilly, windy, and wet conditions along the southern Atlantic coast,” Meteorologist said. “The weather will trend warmer and more humid during the later part of next week into the following weekend,” Meteorologist reported.

Warmer and more humid weather in the Southeast could indicate something else going on over the Atlantic, or even the storm itself.
The storm will include frigid air around its center when it first approaches Atlantic waters this weekend, which is typical of a non-tropical system. However, there is a chance that the storm’s center will warm up during the following week because it will be lingering over warm water.

Because of the length of time the storm will stay over the warmer waters of the western Atlantic, it is possible that it will take on tropical features. A subtropical system is a cyclone that has tropical characteristics.

“From late next week through next weekend, the possibility of subtropical development is low, but not nil,” Meteorologist  said.

Water temperatures along and a few hundred miles off the coast from northern Florida to North Carolina are normally below the threshold for tropical development, which is around 77 degrees Fahrenheit, as of Saturday, May 7.In this situation, though, there may be some progression toward a subtropical or hybrid system, especially if the center originates near the Gulf Stream, where the water is slightly warmer, according to weather forecasters .

The National Hurricane Center could declare a subtropical depression if the system develops a small, confined circulation with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph or above. Alex is the first tropical and subtropical storm on the list for the 2022 season. The system would have to produce maximum sustained winds of 39 mph or higher for this to happen.
